How do you make a tagboard\shoutbox in PHP.

Yess! I've waited so long to be able to ask that question!

I asked that question once. I suggest you go get a pre-made one. Here is the one I tried to make, but since Comcast doesn't like PHP or CGI, I had to stop.

First: Learn PHP, so you can do simple programs (on websites). then you will see that the syntax (like "if" or "for") is very similair to C.
Second: Think about what to do for a tagboard.
Third:Code it in PHP (if you want to try your thinkings from step 2 try it first in QB or any other language you can code in)

But here's an example I coded some seconds ago:
Code:
<html>
<body>
<form action=forum.php method=post>
<table border=0>
<tr>
  <td>
   Name:
  </td>
  <td>
   <INPUT TYPE=text NAME=name maxlength=12 size=12>
  </td>
</tr>
<tr>
  <td>
   Message:
  </td>
  <td>
   <INPUT TYPE=text NAME=message maxlenght=200 size=40>
  </td>
</tr>
<tr>
  <td>
   <input type=submit value=post>
  </td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
<table border=1>
<?php
if ($name!="" && $message!="")
{
  $fpa=fopen("data.dat","a");
  fputs($fpa,stripslashes($name));
  fputs($fpa,";");
  fputs($fpa,stripslashes($message));
  fputs($fpa,";");
  fclose($fpa);
}
$data = "data.dat";
$fpr = fopen($data,"r");
while($zeile = fgetcsv($fpr,200,";"))
{
for($x=0;$x<count($zeile);$x+=2)
{
  echo "<tr><td>";
  echo $zeile[$x];
  echo "</td><td>";
  echo $zeile[$x+1];
  echo "</td></tr>";
}
echo "<br>";
}
fclose($fpr);
?>
</table>
</body>
</html>
For this code you need a file named "data.dat" (without the quotes) which contains data like that
Code:
akOOma;Welcome to my new board;
Rockman;Wow, this is cool;
akOOma;Yeah, thanx Rockman;

If you have questions because of the code, ask me
B 4 EVER
